Shola, a 9-year-old English Shepherd, became a hero through her search and rescue efforts in tough conditions, exemplifying the profound bond and capabilities of dogs.
After being diagnosed with a genetic form of blindness, Shola's DNA was analyzed, leading researchers to identify the mutation and develop a test to help future pups.
According to Jackie Graves, Shola’s owner and breeder, ‘We’ll never have any more blind puppies,’ reflecting the significant impact of Shola's DNA findings on the breed.
Shola's journey highlights both her bravery in rescue missions and the importance of genetic research in preventing hereditary diseases in dog breeds.
